Break up the laud in January, wit turu piow ; tiki: again toe latter part < February, willi ioi:g scooter. Plant, th iirst ??f March, by running oil* rows (iv feet rtp'nrt with shovel p!ow? fi>lrowed b a long scouter ia sa iou furrow, so a? t get the row as low iff the cat; lt as yo eau ; then, as you are not likely to hav rotten cotton seed to drill in the bolton (three times as thick as lor drilling stand of colton,)'which is myoid piar . scatter along the furrow all you can allon of line rotted manure. If this cannot li obtained, apply long manures broad-ens at the last plowing before laying oiT. No-1, drop two or three grains together, tw< feet apr.rt, and cover with a double plo? (a forked one, with two small scooters ii it,) making one time, passing over atiswe well of covering. Plow it, out the firs and second time with long scooter; thei finish the cultivation with shovels ant sweeps.. Hoc it at hast three times, am thin out the first time to oue stalk in th hill. Cultivate thc usual proportion o ground allotted to corn in this way ; nm oa the first of November, if the negroe don't steal it from you, you will hav com to sell and coen lo keep. On thin laud, the Sparta plan of rows 7 feet apart, and the stalhs 18 incho? t 2 feet in the row, with a row of poa planted between in June, will be fouru preferable to any other. The maui point in corn culture, in this climate are: ls! Deep and thorough preparation t f th soil ; ?Jd. Pulling thc seed low in il; ground-not deeply covered, but in a lui row below the ordinary level of ibo s< i; a'.d this is best done by laying oil' i: ridges in January, with a turning plow followed by a sub soiler or long scoote in thc same furrow; then, afc planting open thc centre furrow, as deep as possi ble, with a shovel plow, followed by ; long scooter; then make a slight ridgi thereon, with two (?.. four furrows of i turning plow ; then open its centre witl a three-inch schooler-manuring aiir planting as above ; then deep and tho rough cultura while the plant is young Uut, as soon as its roots begin to extend drop the use of tho plow a'.toget' er, an clean thc ground and keep it mellow, bv the use of the sweep, the cultivator, o: the horse hoe-implements that will no. go deep enough to break the toots. In mountain sections, near the extrem. Northern limit of growing coin, wc Gm" they often plant it on a bed as we do cot ton, because thc soil dries and warm through quicker, and this forwards thc plant in spring, and hastens its maturity in autumn ; and in ihe'n climate a drought is a contingency that seldom occurs, and is never feared or calculated on. Herc, on. the contrary, to escape drought, we must plant thj corn lower than the gen era! level of the field ; but if planted in poor solis, directly in thc water furrow, without some sue;, preparation as directed above, it comes up yellow and stunted and takes a long while lo get into full 'growth; but willi this preparation thc corn can strikp its ?oots low enough to escape th* drought, aud it starts of}' at once with health and vigor, in conseciiienee. -ED. So. CULT. Glutton the itleat for Farmers. The. cheapest meat for farmers in mut ton, it may safely be said it costs noth ing. The wool that i-i annually sheared from the body of every sheep, richly pays for its keeping. In this climate it costs less to keep sheep than at the North, on account of thc shortness of our win ter*. Then there is the increase-an ?tom of great importance. The increase is so much clear profit. From this increase the farmer can get all his moat for the year if he likes. Or he may save the lambs and take some of ihe.oldcr sheep in their places. The pelt of the sheep, if killed for mut ton, is also saved and sold, which is worth nearly as much as the sheep would sell for. it is also the most convenient meat to have on hand. In thc warmest weather a firmer can take care of one sheep after being killed, without, letting it spoil. With beef this is not so easy. One hand can kill and dress a sheep in an hour. It takes but little time and trouble to till a sheep, not near so much as to kill and dress a hog or a beef! On account of convenience and economy, we say.keep iiheepand Jive upon mutton. Let every farmer keep sheep. They are the most pofitable stock on the farm. The hogs's back' only yields bristles, while the sheep's yields downy wool. All that you feed to the h<*g is gone, unless you killij? while the -heep Mill pay you for its keep wiih its fleece yearly, Th? hog is a filthy, voracious animal-the sheep gentle as K dove and neat and clean ly.-Eural World. Thc medical men of Paris/ecommend the following way of administering castor oil to children : The quantity of oil pre sorted is poured into a small earthen pan over a moderate fire, an egg broken into it and stirred qfso as to form something like .what cooks call frittered eggs. When it is done,, a li.tie salt or sugar, or a few drops of orange water,, or. soma current jelly, should Lc added.

VKRJ?IIC RIDDANCE.-Half aa ounce .of soap boiled in a pint of Water, and pilt on with a brush while boiling hot,, infallibly destroys the bugs and- their eggs. Flies are driven out of a room by banging up a bunch of the plantain or fleawort plant, after it has been dipped in milk. Rats and mice speedily disappear by mixing equal quantities of strong cheese and powdered squills. They.devour this m??; ture with greediness, while it is innocent to man.

Ii KM sn v FOR CR?CP.-Having heard of tho death of a child from Croup, we give th a following simple remedy, winch" aaa been used -\u*h uniform' success. It' is onlv to put a. pinch of puiverized alum on the little sufferer's tongue, repenting it every five or ten minutes? until rcVpiratibn" becomes e*sy. We know families tha' have used thi* remedy for years, always With success, ?nd relitving thc most vio lent cases. WHO'LL TUV IT.-To prevent steers from jumping f^nce.?', clip oil' the cyi ;a?hes of the under lids wbh a pair of scissors, a:i<J the abijity or disposition t<> jump is ns e?g?ctually destroyed as Samp son's power was by the loss of his locks. Thc an:trial will not attempt a fence until the eye lashes are grown again. A Yan kee stock raiser recommended this singu lar remedy to the Farmer's Club at New Vork. A respectable citizen has handed us the. following copy of tha late-Mr. Gay's in fallible cure for thc tooth-ache. He has lately used it with complete success in his own family: 11 To a tablc-spoonfull of any kind of spirit*, add the same quantity of sharp vinegar, .-md a len-spDonfoll ot common salt-nix them well together; hold the liquid in the mouth so that it eau enter th-> cavity or hollow in the tooth; ii will give almost instantaneous relief, without any increase of f ain." To CUKE NOSE CLEZDINO.-Roll up a piece of paper and press it under the up per lip. We have tried this plan in a great number of cases, and have only seen it fail on one occasion. Danger ol''Foo Mach Cottou being Raised. Our readers will sh .re with us the sur prise and pleasure with whicli we read the following paragraph from the Mont gomery (Alabama) Ledger, lt surely is good news to us to hetti- that, so fur from the cotton crop proving to be a titi I un? next year, th." only danger against which it is thought necessary to warn t!?e plan ters is an over-crop. The mania for greenbacks and thu high prices th.it cotton has 'been lately bring ing, we fear will induce the planters ol the South to put too much land in colton this year. The ordinary calculations of prudence and sound reasoning should pre monish them against such a policy. Why is it tl?t cotton sells at such enormous prices as now ? Plainly be cause, of its.scarcity. And the price will inevitably decline as thc production in crease. Messrs. Neill, Brothers ec Co., of New Orleans, well known for the ac curacy of their statistics regarding cot ton, estimate the present slock of cotton in the United States, old nnd new crop, at something over two million bales. If this be true, which we do not doubt, a large crop next year, say four million bales, would unquestionably bring down the price to ante-war rates. Cn the other hand, a crop of half that amount would probably not materially decrease thc price. Would it not, then, be better for thc people bf the South lo raise only two mdliou bales, which would bring them as much money in thu markets of the world as four millions ? and doing this, plant largely in the cereals. With half the amount of land planted, half the labor, half the yield, and a two-fold price, they would h;ive abundant supples of food and grain crop?, while with a full crop of cot ton they would have short home supplies of food and grain crops, and with a small price for the cotton, its proceeds would be consumed in the purchase of necessary supplies. - * -?- ? To MAKE A EWE OW.V A STRANGE LAMB.-Ewes recognize their own lambs by a peculiar odor, and by their voice, color and form. Sometimes a good ewe loses her lamb, while another one has two. In such install?es, it is mitch better to let the ewe that has lost her lamb have ono of the twins to rear, instead of allow ing them to suck their own dam, while a good ewe lv:s no lamb. To make a ewe own the lamb 0/ another, tie her in a close pen aird put the Lamb with her. if she is inclined to butt or kick it, lie her head to thc rack and her hind feet about four inches apart If she will not butt thc lamb, her head'need not be tied, in a few days she will own it. and it will soon forget its own dam. ITy pulling one of a pair of twins on a ewe that, hits lost her lamb, she may bc saved set ions injury from garget. A plan often suc cessful is to remove the skin from the dead, and place the whole or p?rt of it,, upon the lamb to be introduced in its place.-Agriculturist. -? -o- ? CLEAN MILKING.-?t is sometimes for gotten that the last gili of milk drawn, from tho cows udder is the , best pat h of every milking, direful experiments made in England, show, according to a report iately published, that the quantily of cream obta'ned from the last drawn cup 'from most cows, exceeds that of .he fit st, in the proportion of twelve to one. Thc difference in tho quantity alsd is consid erable.' Henee a, .person, who oweUssIy leaves bot , half a pint of milk undrawn 'roses'?rt reality about as . much cream ast Would be afforded by SJ>\ or eight pui.ls ?t ?be bc^?taiagf ind: loses, too, that part of the cream which gives the richness I and high flavor to bia lotter. j How SAIT FISH SIIODXD BIS FRESHENED. .-Many persons who are in thc habit of freshening mackerel or oilier salt Tish, never dream that there is a right anda wrong way to do it. Any person MfA?' has seen the process of evaporation going or? at the salt works, knows that-the salt falls to thc bottom. Just so it is in the. t?tn where your mackerel or whitefish lies soaking ; and, as it lays with the skin side down, the salt will fall to: Xh? skin, and there remain, when, if placed with tho flesh side down, the salt falls to the bottom of the pan, and the fish comes out freshened as it should bo. Jn. Ihe^ther casc, it is nearly as salt as! when put in. if you do not believe this, lest Iba matter for yourselves.-Southern Cultivator. OKCIIA??US AND VINEYARDS.-We again urge upon the owners of poor, hilly lauds, the wisdom of planting Orchards and Vineyards largely and at once. Wo have, undoubtedly; the very finest fruit .country in tho world; and when properly 'conducted, uo Agricultural or Horticultu ral enterprise will "pay" half so wei] ns the culture of fina Fruit. -- ,>r.
